“We’re going to see hills and valleys, at least for the next several years as we get more vaccine out. That’s going to help. But the challenge is going to be: How big will the hills and valleys be, in terms of their distance?” Osterholm said. “We don’t know.

Note to all hospitality and retail workers. Treat your patrons with respect and smile!! I will not tip for bad service or go back to a retailer that gives me attuned. Sorry if this offends some. I know all are overworked and doing the best they can. Don’t complain if you can’t make any money while you’re pissed off that you are working.
